About this episode

As we bid farewell to 2024 and welcome 2025, I’m reflecting on some of my favorite guest appearances on other shows. New episodes will return on January 8th! This past March, I had the pleasure of joining Dr. Shelby Harris on the Sleep Talking with Dr. Shelby podcast, where we explored why the advice to “sleep when the baby sleeps” isn’t always realistic.

During our conversation, we discussed:

  • Why getting rest during the "fourth trimester" can feel nearly impossible
  • How hormonal changes postpartum can impact your already limited sleep
  • Practical tips and tricks for actually getting some much-needed rest


Check out Sleep Talking with Dr. Shelby where “Dr. Shelby Harris, talks with experts and real people about the sleep challenges keeping them awake – and solutions that will help them get the rest they deserve”.


Our podcasts are also now on YouTube. If you prefer a video podcast with closed captioning, check us out there and subscribe to PedsDocTalk on YouTube.


We love the sponsors that make this show possible! You can always find all the special deals and codes for all our current sponsors on the PedsDocTalk Podcast Sponsorships page of the website.
